Toshiba Launches Small Sized 1-Channel High-Side Switch IPD for Automotive Application

TOKYO--December 6 2013: Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO:6502) today announced the launch of "TPD1055FA", a 1-channel high-side switch IPD (intelligent power device) that adopts a small-sized package for use in automotive applications. Mass production is scheduled to start at the end of this month.

The product is fabricated with BiCD process, allowing introduction of a new WSON10 package line-up. This reduces the mounting area to approximately 30% that of equivalent products1 in a SOP-8 package, contributing to the downsizing of equipment.

Key Features

BiCD process (P-channel DMOS output@VDSS=40V) Supply voltage: VDD(opr)=5 to 18V Built-in protection and diagnostic functions:

Protection functions: overcurrent, overtemperature

Diagnostic functions: overcurrent, overtemperature, open load, short to VDD-output

Low Drain-Source ON-resistance

RDS(ON)=0.12Ω(max)@VDD=8 to 18V, Io=-2A, Tch=25°C

Small package

WSON10(3mm x 3mm)

Applications

Automotive applications that use a 12V battery with a 3A or lower current, such as solenoid valve drives, mechanical relay drives, driving lamps, and load switches.
